The Negro's Place in Nature.
We have received a copy of a pamphlet
with the above title, containing a lecture
delivered in England by Dr. James Hunt
before the London Anthropological Society
Dr. Hunt is one of tbe most eminent natu
ralists of England, and his lecture takes the
position that the negro race ii adapted by
nature to a position of subordination. He
overthrows tbe arguments of tbe Abolition
! . 1 .
ibis m masterly manner, no muca im
portance was attached to this Lecture in
England, that Professor Huxley, of tbe
Royal College, essayed to give an answer
fo it on tbe part of the Abolitionists, but he
rather succeeded in confirming than des
troying Dr. Hunt's arguments. This Lec
ture has been re-printed in this country by
Van Evrie, Horton &Co,No. 162 Nassau
street New York, and will be sent postpaid,
for 15 cents. It is an admirable little tract,
and very opportune as a reply to the argu
ments of miscegeoationists. Every Demo
crat should have one. Send for it.
Dabtno Bobbery. One of the boldest
and most daring robberies that has ever
been perpetrated iu the city, took place yes
terday afteroooo, at Duhxe's extensive
jewelry atore.-on tbe corner of Fourth and
Walnut streets. It appears that some
sbarpnrs imitating the the habit of a num
ber of Mr. Duhme's customers, by calling in
to compare tbeir watches with tbe clock
regulators, had gone farther in makiog use of
the freedom of the store, than is generally
known.
It is supposed that some person thus en
gaged, apparently taking advantage of the
absence of the proprietors and clerks In the
rear of tbe store, quickly but carefully
opened a door of the show-case in which
tbe diamond rings, pins, broaches &o t were
exhibited through tbe front show" window,
for tbe bent tit or passers by on tbe street
ins enarper iook out a tray containing
oy-ydiamoDd rings, and secreting the
same nnaer oiscoai. as is supposed, Ieisur
ly left the store. Tbe value of the oroD-
erty stolen is estimated at about $12,000.

entire command. Cincitaiati Enquirer.

men have increased in1 number
here amaziogly in the past ten days, and
strange it may sound tbe administration has
physically forced tbeir growth; reflecting,
intelligent Bepublicans believe that Stan
ton, by his late arbitrary arrests, has dam
aged their party more than all else that has
happened in tbe past year, and non-pari-san
heretofore war-men now say, "It is
clear that this war is not being carried on
for tbe purpose we originally engaged in It,
We do not want the Union preserved, if in
order to save it, we are to have a military
despotism in place of the Constitution.
We have noto a . military despotism and
Stanton is Dictator. Our condition could
not be mads worse by any change; let us,
therefore, stop this war with the Confeder
ates and dismiss from office those who de
prive us of our constitutional rights.'
So tbe kettle of public sentiment is boil
ing here.
Kefernng to the peace proposition a gen
tleman from your c'.ty.now traveling in Eu
rope, writes a letter dated at Paris, April 27,
1864. Tbe letter is addressed to Hon. Alex.
Long, who was kindly permitted me to copy
tbe correspondence. The writer says:
Oo my return to this city from a trip
through Aus'.ria and Italy, Ifiud the French,
German and Italian pipers extensively
ventilating your remarks oo that occasion,
(referring to Mr. Long's speech in the House
of Representatives ) The European press
seem almost in a body to sustain you in the
right to entertain and freely express your
views and sentiments as a Representative.
As to the propriety of your suggestions, or
the time selected to make them, there is a
diversity of opinion.
I have traveled much on the Continent
since I left home, iu August last, and have
added much to my former small stock of
wisdom as to the opinions of Europeans on
the present American war.
The peopleof Germany and France are
free to confess that tbe South is entitled to
a separate Government, and will to doubt
achieve its independence. Yet they would
gladly ree tbe North pursue Ibis matter, for
tbe purpose of abolishing el-very. France
is more abolition in sentiment than ever
Old or New England was. She entertains
tbe idea honestly, believing in the equality
of races, and that all are entitled lo liberty
The Yankee, after having stolen the negro
will never consent to give him either civil
or political liberty.
Germany indorses the war pretty mncb
on the same ground the Yankee does, that
is, she has invested men and money in tbe
enterprise to a larger extent. I did not pass
a Uroker's or a Banker's window 10 all Ger
maoy, without seeing Lincoln's and Chase's
face on greenbacks and bonds, as thick as
you see tbem on Third street.
Hen's teeth are as plenty as these Ameri
can aisignants every where outside of Ger
many. These Germans who were driven out as
rebels in 1843, are now in your country, and
where do you find tbem? Fighting ;n the
very cause they rebelled against at home !
Tbe German states understand this perfect
ly, and ate encouraging and assisting them
to emigrate. They are considered a dis
turbing element at home, and you will find
them such with you.
England has more heart, soul and brave
ry, than any people I have met, with tbe
single exception of tbe people tbe Ya.kee
wishes to exterminate. At tbe commence
ment of this war, tbe people of England
were almost unanimously in favor of tbe
North. The scales have gradually fallen
from their eyes, and they see the Yankee in
all bis naked deformity no honesty in his
abolition sentiment, or christian professions.
In all my travels, I have failed to meet one
single instance, wnere an ingnsnman is a
well wisher of the North, iu this struggle.
It is common for them to call tbe Yackee
a savage and a bruie scarcely worthy of
being called more than naif civilized.
And now my old frieod let me apologize
for having wondered from mv point. I
commenced this note simply tt offer you my
thanks for your fearless advocacy of peace.
You stopped a little short of the true
mark. We must have Peace and Union if
possible: but Peace even without Union.
Stop tbe war and make a Union of consent,
if possible. Maximilian bas gone to Met
ico with the good will and endorsement of
nearly every first and second class power oo
this continent. If you continue this war
you will be in a pretty condition to assert
tbe Monroe Doctrine, won't you? Tbe fact
that you and Mr, Harris were not expelled
shows a very great change in tbe House.
Where has all the Yankee patriotism? gone,
when such frank treason is submitted to in
Congress? I hope you will be able to sur
vive tbe vote of censure. If you never do
any thing else, that will be a feather in your
cap. I sena you ny tnis mail the Opinion
Alatumale and Lm Urance, so that you may
see tbe style of comments. Oar only hope
ef.Union is in Peace. I therefore greet vou
as a patriot and mend ol your country.'

Rebel Attack on a Gunboat.
Caird, May 30. The steamer Graham,
with Memphis dates of the 27th, arrived
last night. On tbe morning of tbe 25th the
gnnboat Curlew was attacked at Games'
Landing, fifty miles below Napoleon, by a
rebel battery of ten guns eighteen and twen
ty-four pounders. The fire was returning
when a brisk engagement ensued, lasting
for an hour, when tbe rebels were driven off.
Tbe Belle of St Louis, from Memphis, ar
rived with 343 bales of cotton for St. Louis
and one day's later dates. U. S. Hospital
boat Thomas, in charge of Dr. E. H. Hums
bad arrived from Red River with about
two hundred of the wounded in the engage
ment at Yellow Bayou. Nineteen boats
bad arrived at Vicksburg with General A.
J. Smith's command.
Tbe steamer Longworlh was fired into on
Wedoesday last, by a rebel battery of six
gons, from tbe Arkaniar shore, near Colum
bia. Tbe boat was beyond range and pas
sed on without iijury.
The steamer Sa.lie List was also fired in
to tbe following evening, by the same bat
tery and the pilot badly wounded.
A model cert ficate is tbe following:
"Dear Doctor, I will be one hundred and
seventy -fivt years old next October. For

Republican Convention at Cleveland.
Cleveland, May 30, 11. P. M. Judging
from the number of delegates already in and
those represented on tbe way, tbe conven
tion to-morrow will be composed of sever
al hundred delegates. There are many
Missourians in attendance, but the delega
tions from Illinois, Iowa. Arkansas. Ohio and
Pennsylvania are also large; Michigan,
Wisconsin, Minnesota, Kaosas, New York,
New Jersey and Massachusetts are also rep
resented, but not largely. -
Tbe Germans have delegates from twelve
States,, some of whom held an informal
meeting on Sunday, when, after an inter
change of views, resolutions were adopted
aga:nst Lincoln in favor of Fremont; against
suppression of tbe press and in favor of right
of trial by jury, and protesting against any
inTringment upon this rights as destructive
of American liberty, also in favor of amen
ding the constitution to prohibit slavery,
and for the Monroe doctrine, and the one
term principle as absolutely necessary to
wuovk borrupuun Apparently none 01 ini
delegation of War Democrats from New
York favor the nomination of Grant with
Fremont for Vice-President. They argue
that a victory in Virginia next month will
secure the endorsement of this ticket at
Chicago. On the other hand, the Fremon
terssay that they want a roan whose polit
ical record is well defined and koown to the
country, and who has positive strength.
This they claim for their candidate, and
profess to believe he is likely to be endors
ed at Chicago as is General Grant.
The indications are that Grant's name
will be withdrawn, and that of Fremont
will be nominatad without opposition.
Several are named for Vice President,
among '.hem Gen. Cochran. Geo. W. Cai.
Gratz Brown, Gen. Logan, Gov. Andrews
and Gen. Rosscrans. Cochran is the stron
gest to-night.
The p'a'form will be snbstantially that
adopted by tbe Germans, as indicated above
Oo the points set forth there seems to be no
material diversity of opinion.
Comptroller Robinson, of New York, has
written a letter strongly favoring tbe ootni
Bation of Grant.
Parker Pillshnry brings with him a letter
from Wendell Phillips, expressing regret at
his inability to attend tbe Convention, and
complaining that tbe Administration is a
failure, because it has weighed treasure
against blood, and civil liberty against sla
very, and up to the present moment has de
cided to exhaust them all bjlore it uses
freedom heartily as a means of battle, that
if Mr. Liocolu is re-elected, he is re-elected
to pursue the same policy, and to obey
tbe same cabinet. He deprecates tbe
Louisiana reconstruction experiment, and
contends that tbe only plan of reconstruc
tion within twenty years, is to admit the
black to citizen ship, and use him with the
white ss the basis of States. He closes by
favoring the nomination of Fremont or But
ler, Fremont being his first choice.
The Army Across the Pamiinky River.
Washington, May 30.
Maj. Gen. Dix:
A dispatch dated yesterday, 29th, at Han
over towo. states that the army has success
fully crossed over tbe Pamuoky and now
occupies a front about three miles south of

areascertained to have been killed.

A ciftad nd nriintie lady of Vermont
in a letter on the delusion of tbe people in
permitting this war, asks, "do you believe
It possible that the people will permit this
horrid madness to last much longer?" . We
cao no more answer that question than we
can tell how Ions the spasms of a maniac
may last. The madness of a war grows on
what it feeds on. A people who were mad
enough to allow themselves to begin such
a war, may allow it to go on until a merci
ful exhaustion at laU terminates their lives
all together. The people af almost every
nation have many times allowed tnemselves
to be utterly ruined by wars which were
waged to gratify the ambition or malice 0f
a few unprincipled chieftains. In the last
year of tbe sixteenth century the people of
France carried on wars until they literally
reduced themselves to skeletons. Cbatau
briand, in bis Etudes Histoiqu', draws this
picture of the borid miseries which they
endured to still carry on war:
."After feeding on all sorts of animals,
cats, dogs, and such like, and skins of these
animals, after devouring children, they
ground the bones of the dead, and used the
dust in place of fliur. This bread preser
ved its virtue, those, who eat it died.
Thirty thousand persons fell in ibis way at
last. The streets were strewed with dead
bodies, the dying crawled in amongst
them."
Good God! one would think that this
experience would have lasted France forev
er; but it di& not. For in the midd!eof the
next century we see the mass of the people
made the same unhappy wretches ain by
allowing themselves to be used ar the im
plements of despotic ambition in the war.

cording these events: "During fifty years,

weak tbat they creep along like lizards on a

suuiight almost eaten up with worms. We
see them lying in disgusting proximity lo

creep away. And we see what we should
not dare to mentiod bad we not ourselves
seen it, they eat their own arms and hands
and die in dire despair. ''Into such lunat
ics and devils does war convert a people.
A natiou drutk with blood is enough to
make the gods weep. The people of Swe
uon allowed tbeir mad king, Charles tbe
Twelfth to carry on wars until all the youn
men iu tbe kingdom were slaio. But there
is no end to these examples. Now that
we bave launched upon tbe bloody tide God
oniy can tell when or where we shall stop.

"Joseph, thee should drink something be
fore thee goes to bed at night thee is al

But one night, on fatal night, Joe cme
in be lore the old lady retired. He sat down
and, with that, look of semi-intoxicated win-

in the meeting, and was getting on very well
until he espiel what he supposed to be a

Tbess Bonds are issued under the Act of Con
gress of March 8tli, 1854, which provides that in
lien of so muph of the loan antnonzea oy tne
of March 8d, 1888, to which this is supplement
ary, the Secretary of the Treasury is authorized
to borrow from time to time, on the credit of the
United States, not exceeding TWO flUNDBED
MILLION DOLLARS during the current fiscal
year, and to prepare and Issue therefor Coupon
and Registered Bonds of the United States; and
all Bonds issued under this Act shall be EX
EMPT FROM TAXATION by or under any
State or municipal authority. Subscriptions to
these Bonds are received in United States notes
or notes of National Banks. They aTe TO BE
REDEEMED IN COIN, at the pleasure of the
Governmont, nt any period not lets than ten nor
more than forty years from tbeir date, and until
their redemption FIVE PER CENT. INTEREST
WILL BE PAID IN COIN, on Bonds of not over
ona hundred dollars annually, and on all other
Bonds semi-annually.
The interest is payable on the first days of
March and September in each year. The semi
annual Coupons are pnyuble at those dates, and
the annual Coupons on the 50 and 100 dollar
Bonds are payable on the first of Mirch.
Subscriber will receive either Registered or
Coupon Bonds, as they may prefer. Registered
Bonds are recorded on the book of the U. S.
Treasurer, and can be transferred only on tbe
owner's ooJer. Coupon Bonds are payable to
bearer, and aro mora convenient for commercial
uses.
Registered Bonds will be issued of the denom
inations of Fifty Dollars (50), One Hundred
Dollars ($100), Five Hundred Dollars ($500),
One Thousand Dollars ($1,000), Five Thousanu
Doilara ($5,000), and Ten Thousand Dollars
($10,000); and Coupon Bonds of the denomina
tions of Kilty Dollars ($50), One Huudred Dol
lars ($100), Five Hundred Dollars ($500), and
One Thousand Dollars ($1,000).
Subscribers to this loan will have the option of
having their Bonds draw interest from March
l.,t, by paying the accrued interest in coin (or
in United States notes, or the notes ol National
Banks, adding fifty per cent, for premium,) or
receive tbem diawiug interest from the date ol
subscription and deposit.
As llie-e Bonds are ex-mpt from municipal or
Stato taxation, tbeir value is increased from one
to three per cent, per annum, according to the
rate of tax levies in various parte of lbe country.
At the present rate cf premium on gold they
pay over eight per cent, interest in currency,
and are of equal convenience as a permanent or
temporary investment.
It is believed tbat no securities offer so great
inducements to lenders as the various descrip
tions of U. S. Bonds. In all othor forms of in
debtedness, the fuitn or ability of private parties
or stock companies or separate communities
only is pledged for payment, while for the debts
of the United States the whole property of the
country is holden to secure tbe payment of both
principal and interest in coin.
TI1030 Bonds may be subscribed for in sums
from $50 up to any magnitude, on tbe same
terms, and are thus made equally available to
the smallest louder and tbe largest capitalist.
They cau be converted Into money at any mo
ment, and the holder will have tbo benefit of the
interest.
The fact tbat all duties on imports are payable
